If there is anything in-the char ter of the Atlantic and Pacific Rail- road Company whereby its proper ty is exempt from State or Territo- rial taxation, or supervision, we have failed to find it, and they have failed to show it.-Prescott Courier.
 If this road was exempt from taxation or other territorial super vision by virtue of it's charter, the Company would have brought it forth long ago in the assertion of their rights, instead of dickering compromises with the several coun- ties. This Company has had sev- eral opportunities i'll the past three months to show why they< should not be taxed, and twice have these opportunities been lost on account of the inability of the representa- tive of the Company to appear, and we believe now this Company would prefer negotiating compromise rather than to appear before the court with their charter, and point out that part of it which exempts them from taxation.
 So long as the counties accept compromises from this road, so long will the company proclaim its exemption from taxation, and we now hope the stand Apache county has taken in the matter will deter mine the controversy. The county is by far better off, even though it be deprived of it's taxes from this source for the next five years, than it would be wereit to accept a com promise without forever settling whether or not this Company is liable to taxation, the county has seen the evil effects of compromis- ing with this road and is not very anxious for repetition.
 If by virtue of it's charter this load is exempt from taxation it
 
 will have no trouble in proving it's claims which will be more satisfac- tory to the county than rattle-trap- ped compromises.

THE Inter-Republics says it is reported that pr. George L. Miller, editor of the Omaha Herald, the leading Democratic journal in Ne braska, is now in Mexico upon pub lie business. Members of thetNe- braska delegation in Congress say that Dr. Miller came to Washington at the Presidents request. AS Miller is a sound Democrat it was thought at first that he was to be consulted about the patronage of the State, This was not the matter. After three consultations Miller was sent to Mexico upon business so conf dentially guarded that no human being, excepting the President Miller and possibly the Secretary of State have the least idea of what it is.

THE election laws of Arizona could be amended by the present Legislative Assembly with some benefit. A law requiring voters to register in precincts in which they live, and vote in precincts in which they registered, would be a vast inn provement over the present system which enables voters to go from precinct to precinct, and vote as they go.

A special dispatch from Albu- querque to the Cincinnati Enquirer says the killing of Deputy Sheriff Lockhart, Palmer and King on the 9th instant by Navajo Indians was brought upon themselves by their abusive and threatening attitude towards the Indians. It is sin gular fact, that although Indians are notorious liars, as known to every one who has any knowledge at all of them, their testimony is irreproachable and cannot be de- nied by any one. The killing of these men was a wanton and ma licious murder. When Deputy Sheriff Lockhart and his men ap- preached the tepe of the Indian for whose arrest he had a warrant, and who was off the reservation, he and his men dismounted, and he alone went to the tepe to make known his mission-telling the Indian he would not be hurt, but was simply to answer the charge made against him. The Indian replied he would surrender, but wanted to send for his brother before he left. This Lockhart consented to, and when the brother put in his appearance he did so in the company of two other Indians, who immediately seized Lockhart, and began butch ering him with their knives, the squaws assisting in his assassina- tion with an axe. At this point King fired into them killing one and seriously wounding several others. Anticipating no trouble, and carrying only a few rounds of ammunition, they were defenceless, and endeavored to escape, their horses being killed and wounded, they ran until exhausted and fell, the Indians coming up and blow ing their brains out where they fell. Deputy Sheriff Lockhart was large stockowner, and one of the most highly esteemed and respected citi- zens of Apache county.
 The satisfaction the citizens get from the military is, that it was that it was the fault of these men that they were killed. Two-thirds of this 'brass" ornamentation of the grand( American army should be placed on the reservation with the Indians and kept there, so far as the protection they give citizens and their property is concerned.
 All American citizens are enti- tied to certain amount of protec- ton, and when the national gov ernment is unable to give them this, it is time for the citizens to learn they must protect themselves.

Agreeable and Disagreeahle People.

The chief difference between agreea-
ble and disagreeable people, III TINS
world, between those whom every
body loves and those who are loved by
nobody, is in the place given 6y them
respectively to self, in their thoughts
in their words, and in their actions
those persons who give the first place
to themselves, in their intercourse
with others, cannot well be pleasing
to others. And those persons who,
lovingly, give the first place to those
whom they meet, cannot be generally
disagreeable, whatever they say or 40.
IF Il person thinks of himself, thinks
of what he can say of himself thinks
of what the other is likely to think OF
him, thinks of the impression he Will
make on the other, is sure to stand in
his own light, when he meets another.
But if he thinks first of the other per-
son, thinks Of the others good side,
thinks of what he can say that will
crafty the other, or that will help the
other, and if he speaks and acts &C.
cordingly, he is sure to be a means OF
light and cheer to others.

A Happy Childhood.

Yet this poverty was not pauperism
there was nothing in it either misera-
BILE or abject; it was sweet, simple,
contented, happy, even joyous; Mary
like others of her rank. would spin,
and cook food, and 60 to buy fruit, and
evening by evening visit the fountain,
still called after her the Virgins foun-
tain,' with her pitcher of earthenware
carried on her shoulder or her head.
Jesus would play and learn and help
His parents in their daily tasks, and
visit the synagogues on the Sabbath
days. "It is written" says Luther,
"that there was once pious godly
bishop, who had often earnestly pray
ed that God would manifest to him
what Jesus had done in His youth.
Once the bishop had a dream to this
effect. He seemed i'm his sleep te see
a carpenter working at his trade, and
beside him little boy who was gath
ering up chips. Then came in q
maiden clothed in green, who called
them both to come to the meal, and
set porridge before them. A II this the
bishop seemed to see in his dream
himself standing behind the door that
he might not be perceived. Then the
little boy began and said, "Why does
that man stand there? Shall he not
also eat with us? And this so fright.
ened the bishop that he awoke.'
"Let this be what it may" adds Lu:
ther, "a true history or fable"
none the less believe that Christ in
His childhood and youth looked and
acted like other children, yet without
sin, in fashion like O man."

Nearness to God.

Some one has said: "Never separate
yourself from God. How sweet it is
to live always near those who love u.s.
But it is sweeter still to live near those
whom we love, and the reason why
men do not delight more in nearness
to God is not because God does not
love them, but because of their lack OF
love for him. Let the Christian medl-
tate on the wonderful love of Christ,
and the sacrifices made by him to save
and bless lost. ruined sinners, until
the fire burns in his heart and he can
say in sincerity and truth, 1.-The love
of Christ constraineth u.s." Then
will we find it indeed sweet to feel
that we are near to God. Then can
we sing,
Nearer, my God, to thee: Nearer to thee,
Fen though 1t be n cross that raiseth me-"
Then, if perchance some sin commit
ted by us has caused him to hide his
face, like the Psalmist, we will soon be
found, crying out, MY soul thirsteth
for God, for the living God. When
shall I come and appear before God"
This of itself may be real comfort
to us, that dangerous storm and great
distress may happen to the best OF
men; such things are no proof that
we are deserted of God, or that he is
displeased with US, Christ being in the
ship did not prevent the storm. And
this applies to many Of our troubles
and perplexities, especially such as oc.
cur to the Church, which is indeed
that sacred vessel which contains
Christ and his people, and is almost
always, as it were, in jeopardy, and
covered with the waves. And Christ
within her is often, as it were, asleep,
trying our faith and waiting for our
prayers.-Isaac Williams.
